Several commuters at the Half-Way-Tree Transport Centre in St. Andrew had an opportunity to directly express their concerns to Prime Minister Andrew Holness and two other leading officials this morning.

Mr. Holness was joined by Transport Minister, Daryl Vaz and Education Minister Fayval Williams.

This morning’s visit comes as thousands of teachers and students return to the classrooms after the summer break. The new academic year begins today.

Their visit also followed the handing over of 100 new compressed natural gas buses to the Jamaica Urban Transit Company last Tuesday.

Mr. Vaz had also promised to make unannounced stops at transport centres and bus parks, as a no-nonsense approach will be taken towards inefficiency.
